Gun sales once again set a new record for the month of June, but some retailers are reporting that the rush on guns and ammunition has drained their stock nearly dry.

An analysis of background check numbers by industry analyst Small Arms Analytics & Forecasting released on Wednesday indicates that more than 2.3 million guns were sold in the United States during June. That's an increase of more than 145.3 percent over June 2019. It's also up from the 1.7 million estimated to have been sold in May, the 1.8 million in April, and just shy of the all-time monthly record of 2.5 million set back in March.

There have now been an estimated 8.3 million firearms sold in the United States since March—a record-setting pace likely to make 2020 the greatest year for gun sales in American history if the trend continues.



How many of you have stocked up?

Democrats have been the best salesmen for gun manufacturers and dealers since Obama took office.

I'm waiting until October to see how Trump's doing before making the decision to go buy an AR or two. If the past couple months have taught me anything, it's that I won't always be able to count on the police to protect me and my family. If Biden wins it's only going to get worse.

Maybe you can get your wife’s boyfriend to protect you. It must suck to be scared of everyone that walks past your house.

I’ve not yet attempted to shoot two AR’s at the same time while trying to actually hit the target.

You have to really look for 9mm ammo right now. Every site you go is just about out of stock. And the stock they do have, is naturally way overpriced because of limited supply.

To say that the silent majority feels uneasy about everything that's going on with Black Lives Matter is an understatement. The worst thing that Antifa and Black Lives Matter groups could do right now is to pick a fight with homeowners in the suburbs.
